Katrina Fischer Kuh, a professor at Pace Law School, noted that in Rapanos, the high court split 4-1-4, with Justice Scalia authoring the plurality decision that interpreted "waters of the U.S." and "navigable waters" narrowly. Since Rapanos, however, courts have relied on Justice Kennedy's solo concurrence that took a broader view. "A majority in Sackett could adopt Justice Scalia's definition and thereby shrink the reach of the Clean Water Act, particularly to wetlands," Kuh said.
